Montée cyclo du Col du Pré

The climb to the Col du Pré offers a formidable alternative for accessing Lac de Roselend.

From Beaufort, this ascent offers a succession of incredible panoramas, including the listed hamlet of Boudin, with its large wooden chalets clinging to the slope and covered in flowers, and an unforgettable view of Lake Roselend. Before you reach the top, however, you'll have to negotiate a 15-turn ascent with average gradients of between 8 and 10%!
At the summit, a short descent allows you to loop back to the Col du Meraillet and, depending on your state of fitness, continue the ascent to Cormet de Roselend (1964m) or return to your starting point.

From Albertville, this pass has a total of 1059 points on the square.

From the center of Beaufort, take the main road to Arêches, then cross the village on the RD 218. At the fork towards the St Guérin dam, turn left onto the narrow Col du Pré road, which leads to the summit.
